It was such a nice surprise to discover a new French bakery in the Del Mar Plaza area. Paris En Rose is perfectly situated among charming boutique shops, making it an easy and inviting stop. I was especially happy to be greeted by Keegan and Shaw. Both individuals were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable. The selection of French pastries and drinks was impressive. I ordered the Rieme lemonade along with a couple of butter croissants, and everything was delicious. The multigrain and olive bread loaves were also very tempting and will definitely be on my list next time. Overall, the prices were very reasonable, the quality was excellent, and the experience was delightful. I'll absolutely be back read more

I was wanting to try this during my stay in San Diego and on my final day heading out I finally got to try it. I really enjoyed the cinnamon roll made with croissant dough and to be honest, the pain eu chocolate wasn't the freshest I've had, but I still enjoyed it OK. I wouldn't order that again, but I would definitely get the cinnamon roll again. That was one of the best ones I've had. I loved that it was made from croissant dough, which made it lighter and more flaky than most cinnamon rolls. I have high standards for croissants as I've been to France many times. :) The view that I got to enjoy these watching while sitting outside, made it such a great experience. I balanced my sweets with a cold refreshing iced Americano, and I would like to come back to try the Nutella danish. The service was great. There was a sweet girl working that helped me and allowed me to take my time looking. read more

So very Sad to see the adorable pink bicycle gone and the sweet feminine bakery with my favorite rose beverage on the rooftop with the ocean view. They just needed to add a few menu items. So disappointing. La Jolla is too far and the location there unaccommodating. The charm of this little cafe will be missed. It was the only place in that entire shopping center worth going to. read more

Would have been better if they actually greeted me when I walked into the shop and was looking around. They wouldn't take my order or asked me what I wanted. The person behind the counter seemed like they didn't even want to talk to me. Such a shame because I really wanted to try their items. We ended up just walking out. Waste of time. I haven't been treated like that in a long time. Definitely do not recommend and would never come back. read more

A fantastic little bakery in Del Mar with the spirit of France in every breath. The pastries were buttery and delicious with a nice crisp texture and delicious flavorings. The staff were friendly and helpful. While a small space, it doesn't hold back on its French patisserie charm. Whether it's a buttery croissant, sweet macaron, savory coffee or some French delicacy, Paris En Rose has something for you. read more

I was in the center for lunch and decided to pick up a sweet treat before heading home. Small shop located on the top level of the center with a beautiful view overlooking the ocean. During my midweek visit it was already slim pickings. I gravitate towards anything chocolate and the only chocolate treat I saw. Was the chocolate croissant. It looked appetizing and pretty. I asked the employee how much chocolate the croissant had inside since I prefer a lot of chocolate. She mentioned 3 bars. I took a chance and made the purchase for $6. I toasted my croissant when I got home, took a bite, and was disappointed with the amount of chocolate on the inside. It was a bare sliver. I was bummed. read more

A colleague of mine has a big sweet tooth, so I promised her she had no idea what surprise I had in store: a Tour de France pastry experience. I knew exactly who to reach out to and I was lucky enough to meet the owner herself. She is such a down-to-earth soul, and when I asked her to surprise me with her favorite pastries for a custom preorder, she set aside time to make the whole experience truly special. I've been here a few times before, but the consistency continues to amaze me. The staff are knowledgeable about ingredients and policy, something so refreshing in a world where too many places sell frozen, pre-packed food. For this order, I needed pastries to impress a production team at a business meeting, and I just knew Paris en Rose would deliver exactly what I envisioned. The pastries themselves looked like they belonged on the set of Bridgerton, with stunning presentation, delicate colors, perfect textures, and flavors that felt like a dream. Everyone at the meeting was taking photos of the desserts before even tasting them. The joy they brought to the table was priceless. Even the pickup process was thoughtful. Parking at LAX is never easy, but an employee helped me park safely on the side since he knew I'd be in and out quickly. Inside, I noticed even more giftable items and details I hadn't before. At sunset, the store glows with the most feminine ambiance, down to the pointed-toe heeled shoe door handle and perfectly complementary décor. From the kind service to the artistry of the pastries, Paris en Rose gave me an experience of a lifetime. My vision came to life without me even having to explain it. There truly aren't enough words to capture how special this place is. read more

Came there to get few pastries and of course some coffee. Me and my wife both opted for a pistachio iced lattes and they were good. Maybe a little bit too sweet for my taste but still good. For pastries we got matcha, raspberry, and raspberry rose croissants. Kids loved the matcha one. Filling amount was great. As for texture and taste we had slight differences of opinion. Wife loved it as it is, I felt like I'd prefer it to be a little less buttery but still enjoyed it. It is a bit of a walk to get to the storefront And parking could be a little easier. read more

Dangerously delicious pastries. There is limited street parking but a large garage under the center. The tiny little shop gets their pastries from the sister bakery in La Jolla and no taste is lost in the transportation. There is plenty of outside seating to enjoy your order. I have had the pastries several times, and while I have not ordered any drinks there, the espresso machine is legit and shows promise. The staff is always friendly and willing to assist in your selections when ordering at the counter. read more

Beautiful French Bakery & Cafe! So Aesthetically pleasing! The Raspberry Danish is Delicious!!!! The Energy in this cafe is the best! The two Baristas there were super friendly !!

This was my first visit to Paris En Rose, and I had heard great things about their pastries. I stopped by with my mother and daughter for a little treat. While they don't offer indoor seating, there are a couple of small tables out front, and a nearby patio in the shopping center provides additional seating. The shop appears to offer a variety of pastries, but when we arrived, the selection was quite limited. I ordered the pistachio croissant, which unfortunately was dry, and my mother felt the same about her pastry. We were hoping for a more impressive experience, but overall, we were a bit disappointed. read more

Stumbled upon this shop randomly when I was craving for some good croissant and matcha. Unfortunately, the croissants tasted terrible despite looking super gorgeous. Ordered: pistachio croissant, matcha spiral croissant, and matcha latte. Both croissants are very stale. Pistachio is pistachio cream inside but barely any of that nutty flavor. Matcha croissant has matcha cream inside but again the flavor is very weak. Matcha latte is good (ceremonial grade and you can customize however you want, extra charge for oat milk). The entire order is $25 read more

Somewhat hard to find shop if you are simply walking around Del Mar, but it's located on the 3rd floor of the respective plaza. The top floor has really nice views and a nice seating are where you can take your baked goods to go and enjoy. The shop is very small but very clean. It has a very bright and inviting interior with all of their items on display. I chose both the Ferro Rocher Croissant and the Pain Suisse (which came with some pistachio on top). The ferro rocher croissant flavor was something different than what I was expecting. I've had the candy a lot in my life but this version seemed to not be sweet enough/had more bitter taste than I wanted. Also because they dip half of it in chocolate, I couldn't effectively warm it up at home because the chocolate would just melt. So the texture of the croissant was also compromised in this sense and so I had to eat it more on the cold-side which means you don't get the crispy flakiness you look for in a croissant. The Pain Suisse was much better since we were able to warm it up. Very flaky and buttery with some slight chocolate/pistachio filling, this one was definitely my favorite. read more

So just tried this for first time on Tuesday. The place has its pros and cons. First the parking situation sucks because you have to pay can't do much about that. The place is cute but has like only two tables outside the cool part is there's more siting by the restaurants. The pastries not gonna lie were good but nothing special. The 3 drinks we ordered and 3 desserts were like 50-60 dollars. I don't know why it's so expensive. It's definitely not an everyday place to go to but at least worth trying once. read more

This place is cute and would be nice to grab a pastry and sit on the gorgeous terrace that overlooks the coastline. We got a macaroon or two and they tasted like soap. Maybe cleaner sprayed too close to the prep area, don't know. The sales associate had a glove but touched money and other things with that hand?! Might try something else but watch out for the food handling. read more

I was in the plaza after a work out and decided to stop by this popular bakery . I knew prices would be high but I wanted to treat my family to some pastries for Halloween that evening. There was still plenty of pastries available around 11:30a that day. There were two employees working the counter. It's a small location located by Il Fornaio. The view on this level of the plaza is breathtaking on a sunny breezy day. The staff was ok , mostly monotone it seemed. I ordered 4 items and was surprised at the high prices. I asked if the pastries were baked there but they said no, it's baked at their other location then brought to this Del Mar location. The small cakes are not baked daily or in house. We tried: Pumpkin rolled croissant $9: - it was a beautiful pastry but so dry. The filling had a lightly sweetened pumpkin cream which we enjoyed. But the pastry dough was not flaky or good Strawberry Croissant $8: - super pretty croissant but again dry. The strawberry slices inside looked wilted and old Nutella Danish $6: - there was a generous serving of nutella which was the best part. The custard, underneath the nutella, was hard and not creamy. The pasty dough was dry and stiff. Raspberry croissant $7.50 - this was the prettiest pastry of them all (see pic of center cut). The pink color was unique and cute in this. The creme filling was nice as it wasn't too sweet. I won't mention the same theme of the dough texture. I was disappointed no one finished a single pastry that evening as they weren't the hit of the dinner party. It was fun to share but not worth the apprx $34 (after tip) spent on just 4 items. We felt the items didn't taste baked that day. I am not sure I'd return to try more items as it's expensive for what you get. Regardless, it's a beautiful location and might appeal to others. read more

I was passing through SD and decided to try this cafe. Pistachio Croissant: The croissant had many layers and was nice a flaky. However, the pastry case is open so if you come later in the day the chance of it being stale are higher. The pistachio cream inside was overpowering and messy. The flavor was not my favorite. Strawberries and Cream Croissant: Forgot to take a picture but this croissant but it was good. The flakiness was there, the strawberries were fresh, and the cream was not too sweet. There is a jam inside that gives the pastry a slide tartness as well. Drinks: Iced vanilla latte was strong on the coffee. The matcha latte was missing the bright green color and bold matcha flavor. Ambiance: The space was very clean and organized. There was a shelf of cute French treats, a self serve utensil bar, and outdoor seating. Service: I came on a Saturday morning and the woman working at the front counter had a bad attitude. Since it was my first time it felt like my family and I were bothering her by asking what she recommends or general questions. Overall: The service alone has convinced me to not return. Pastries and drinks are nothing special. Prices are high. Parking time is limited. Unfortunately, this cafe isn't worth the pit stop. read more

The decor of this bakery is so aesthetic. I love the white, gold, pink, and floral theme! It looks bright and clean indoors, and they greet you as you walk in. I decided to order the: -Strawberry Croissant ($7.50) -Mango Croissant ($7.50) -Pistachio Croissant ($7.50) I also chose to get an iced flavored latte ($5), with the flavor choices being vanilla, caramel, hazelnut, honey lavender, salted caramel, rose, and violet. My friend opted for a bottle of sparkling pomegranate refresher. We shared all three croissants and we could not decide on just one favorite. The croissants were tasty, flaky, and filled perfectly. If I could only repurchase one, I would have to pick pistachio because the flavors were balanced so well. It's a cute place to go for a quick snack or hangout with friends. read more

I specifically came in to try Kouign-amann and they only make it sometimes...the day I was there, it was not available. Being that it is a French bakery, I expect the pastries to be less sweet than other bakeries, and that holds true. I tried an eclair and an apricot danish and they were good and quite expensive. Good enough to come back for? No, not for the price and the difficulty of parking in that structure. Beautiful interior, beautifully presented pastries, and polite staff, so I can understand how this bakery has appeal to their patrons. read more

Beautiful pastry shop on top of a little shopping area. They have little goods you can purchase on the side as you browse as well. Got the strawberry rose crème filled croissant. The crème inside was delicious. Not too sweet, light, and fully. Only downside is I can tell the pastry wasn't too fresh and had been sitting out all day. Recommend to come early. Got the 9 piece Mother's Day chocolates and those blew my mind. Extremely soft and melted in your mouth. Each one had very unique flavors from fruity to nutty. TIP: the lollipops in the front by the register are NOT free. We asked if we can have one and the woman said "yes" then we put it in our pocket at the end charged us $2 per without saying the price. Food: 4.3/5 (better if come earlier in day) Service: 3/5 Ambience: 4.6/5 (very cute and chic. Lots of open shops right outside with live music) read more

Had the Raspberry Rose, Pistachio, and Strawberry Croissant Wheel. These are all as delicious as they look. Although, I would pass on the pistachio. It was good but didn't wow me like the other two flavors. The croissants tasted so fresh! Over a day later, I had a bite of one sitting in the box on a counter and it was still crispy and flaky. Sorcery! The cream was also light and perfectly sweet. You seriously have to check this place out. read more

We got the iced honey lavender latter and iced pistachio latte with oat milk! They are so yummy not too sweet or over flavored. Perfect hints where you can still enjoy the coffee. We shared an Espresso Croissant based on the baristas recommendation and was very pleased. There is this light espresso flavored cream on the inside. It was a little messy to eat but so worth it! Will definitely be coming back here! read more

Street parking is not too complicated as you could drive up the hill a bit to park in the neighborhood or there's a paid parking structure under the bakery. If you are looking from the side street, facing the parking lot entrance, go right up the hill and enter through the side so you could directly get to the bakery. It is further away if you enter from the Main Street. And since it is popular, getting to the door faster will get you to the goodies first. They have different varieties each time I have been there but their popular seller is the rolled croissant. Although it is tempting to buy everything you see since they look so delicious and you have stood in line to get them, get only what you can eat that day since the next day, they aren't as good since they lose their flakiness. I normally get a few and cut and share with my family since they are individually large in size and pretty sweet. There's outdoor seating to the side with a nice view and it is pretty relaxing with the breeze. read more

We ordered a blueberry mascarpone and a tiramisu croissant. Took a bite of the croissant and it tasted stale. We went back in to tell the sales associate it was stale. She said "no one has ever told us that". She then took another tiramisu to the back "to try it". Didn't try it in front of us for some reason and yelled "it's good" from the back room. She let us choose another croissant after that. But what was the theatrics for? We felt guilty for even bringing up the stale croissant but at $8 it's not okay. I complimented the mascarpone on the way out and the sales associate said "yeah. Buh-bye". rude. We've been at Paris en rose many times and this is the last time. Quality and service has dropped. And there are reviews on here mentioning stale or dry croissants. So she lied when she said she's never heard that before. Ps. Would not have posted this review if the service was better. read more

Paris En Rose is located at the 3rd level of the Del Mar Plaza. We stayed across the street at L'auberge. Our room wasn't ready so we decided to give this a try. The decor of this quaint little bakery is phenomenon. The bike outside with flowers just exudes French vibes. Inside is clean and classy. The first thing you see is a glass case of refrigerated sweet desserts. They also have a wall of French goods you can buy. We chose the croissants. All their baked goods are a work of art. Service was great. There was a line but the gentleman we very patient and friendly. We got the Strawberry croissant and, cookie dough croissant and the salted caramel cruffin. It was really tough to choose but you must as each one was close to $8. The croissants were large and flaky on the outside, soft on the inside. I loved the cookie dough croissant. I'm so glad I chose it! read more

Pastries? Where do I sign up?! I love pastries and they have all kinds! Great service and beautiful view from the outside. The pastries were well crafted and tasted amazing! I was a bit disappointed in the lattes. We had Vanilla syrup added but all the flavor was left at the bottom. I thought it was weird when there was no flavor. When I got to the end, I got chunks of vanilla flavoring. I'd still come back but probably skip their drinks. read more

Super cute little bakery. Close to outdoor communal seating are that overlooks the ocean. Friendly service and fabulously decadent croissants!! I had the coconut and my daughter had the matcha both were deliciously crispy & the cream filling was to die for. May be the best croissant ever. We also shared an almond croissant and a savory mushroom croissant that was more like a croissant pizza. Both were also excellent. Will definitely be back. Someone in line who regularly frequents told us it was good that we were there early because they usually sell out quickly. read more

Very beautiful space and display. They have gorgeous pastries and desserts that make the moment feel like an occasion. There are a few tables set outside of the shop, and many more on the open seating rooftop space of the plaza. So, you can take your treat on over to any of the lounge spaces and enjoy views of the ocean alongside your tasty Paris moment. I have been a few times now, and most recently I went with my two younger children and their eyes were wide with excitement as they looked through the glass at all the enticing pastries and desserts. If you visit, it's like a higher-end "kid in a candy shop" moment for kids and adults alike. Pretty fun! read more
